Lack of communication with departments

"Lack of communication with departments"

About: Princess Alexandra Hospital (Harlow)

Anything else?

I am currently under several departments with the hospital example rheumatology, urology and cardiology. Each department needs to talk to each so that the patient is treated as a whole person and not as body parts.. This would stop the clashes of opinions on medications prescribed, so their isn’t a constant change of medication when visiting these several departments specially when there are side effects to these to medications prescribed. .

We need to take what you have said and change the way the services work together to learn lessons for the future. Please make contact with the Patient Experience Team directly on 01279 82 70 84 and we will do all we can to resolve any remaining questions you may have.
